Commands like "tui foo", and "layout next" enter the TUI.

I'm not aware of any GDB command to exit the TUI, and looking at the code, I
can't find any that would do it as side effect.

However, TUI enter/exit is bound to the readline "tui-switch-mode"
command/function:

>  rl_add_defun ("tui-switch-mode", tui_rl_switch_mode, -1);

One should be able to use that to bind any key combo to TUI enter/exit in the
inputrc file, per the "Key Bindings" node in the readline manual.  However, I'm
not familiar readline's vi mode (emacs user here), and whether key bindings
apply in that mode.

Let me know if that helps.
